Glassy Night is my personal interpretation of the Vincent Van Gogh’s very famous picture Starry Night.
I have used mainly the artistic Tiffany glasses, and beach glasses in a few parts.
Due to the very small size of the tiles, on the contrary as usually made with Tiffany technique, the pieces have not been leaded but glued on a glass.
The challenge was to replicate quite any single touch of the Master: I hope to have got the goal.
In order to reach the goal many of those pieces have been reduced at a nail thickness, smaller than a single track of paint.
I have used the mosaic’s technique. The pieces have been glued with glue for paper onto a card on which has been drafted the main edges of the picture.
When the work has been completed, I have spread the epossidic bicomponent glue on a glass 40×30 cm x 4 mm thick, and put it on the work.
After the glue got dry, I have removed the card and … voilà.
Removed completely all the dirt of paper and glue from the surface, I have painted it with transparent varnish.
This work will be placed in the window of my hobby room, near the mosaic of beach’s glasses, that you see on the blog’s background.
Is my first time with this technique, I’ve tried to do my best, I hope you enjoy it.
